Gibson Upper Playfield
Limited and Collector's Edition add a Gibson headstock upper playfield with a six-ball lock and fourth flipper, creating one of the game's defining premium shots.
Guns N' Roses: Not In This Lifetime turns a stadium concert into pinball with 21 full-length studio master recordings, live tour footage, original music performed by Slash, a 120-watt 2.1 sound system, and song-driven multiball gameplay.

Revealed October 5, 2020, this was Jersey Jack Pinball's sixth title. Eric Meunier designed the game with hands-on collaboration from Slash, who helped shape gameplay, recorded original guitar material, and contributed voice and video over a two-year development period.
Every concert song can become a multiball, while the setlist system, album modes, boosters, Rock-it Meter, and final Not In This Lifetime wizard mode give the rules a show-building structure.

The spinning platinum record, Slash top-hat sculpture, Axl Rose sculpt, speaker stack, drumstick ramp, moving lights, and guitar-pick spinners recreate the visual language of a live show.
Slash, Duff McKagan, Richard Fortus, Axl Rose, Frank Ferrer, Dizzy Reed, Melissa Reese, and MC Bob contributed original instrumentation, narration, effects, or voice recordings.
